Danforth, justice presiding, ordered non
suit. j. f. Hanly or this city, the plaintiffs
attorney, filed exceptions to the rulings of

have sustained. The following rescript has
been received, Eaton vs.. Lancaster, ct. ais :
The court cannot say that there was no evil
dence introduced by the plaintiff which if
believed by the jury would have authorized
the verdict, hence non suit was improperly
ordered. Exceptions sustained J. E. Han
ly for plaintiff, Fogler & Hartman, Belfast,
for defendants.

THE NORWICH ELECTION.
Comments of London Newspapers on the
Gladstonian Victory.
LONDON. Aug, I6.

LONDON, Aug, Is.
The daily News, referring to the North
wich election says. seldom has any govern
ment. a year after its form alton met with
such an emphatic rebuff.
The Morning Post is depressed over the
result and urges the conservatives to effect a
better organization. 1t refuses TO believe
that the country is changing its mind in re-
gard to home rule.
The daily telegraph says: The unionist
converts have become perverts and abstain
tionists and have returned 20 their Gla2-
stoni.u allegiance. The paper attributes the
result in Norwich to weakness of the union
ist candidate and campaign, and begs the
unionist leaders to abandon the belief that it
is sufficient to send candidate to the district
with their blessing to secure victory.
The Standard thinks there is evidence that
the Irish question is no longer so powerful
lever, proving that the minds of unionist
electors are becoming lulled to the condition
of false security.
The Times says that the government will
make a fatal mistake if they see in recent
elections any reason for slackening their
efforts to cope efectually with the forces of
disorder in Ireland.

THE THISTLE ARRIVED.
The Yacht from Over the Waters An.
chors in New York Harbor.
New YORK. Aug. l6,

New YORK, Aug. 16.
The yacht Thistle has arrived She
dropped anchor of TomI kinsville at six
O'clock, Tuesday morning. She crossed the
Bar al tour, A. M, and was towed to her
anchorage by the tug Goodwin. Captain
Barr reports pleasant passage, except three
days of rough weather and three without
pun OF wind. The rest of the time they had
light bresze.
The Thistle is certainly pretty model and
does not belle her claims TO speed. She is
clean cut forward and carries overhauging
stern. She is strongly but lightly built ana
has wonderful amount OF cabin room. Be-
low decks she is comfortably but plainly
furnished, and is marked by absence of dec
oratlve art. All her beauty is visible from
water line.
IL Will take about two weeks to clean her
up, set her topnast and bend on her racing
SAILS. she came over under small mains all,
topsail, staysail and jio. For two days of the
trip she carried TWO reefs in her mainssl.
rhe rest of the voyage she shook out every
thing.
The trip took just 81 days Officers ami
crew number 81 men ia all.
The Thistle is OF the follow ing dimensions
Length los feet, over all, So fee t oH water
line, draft ii feet and beam 20 feet. Capt..
Darr positively refused TO give the depth of
her told or length of her main mast.
The Thistle will remain at anchor at Tomp
kinsvilie till the arrival of her owner, Mr..
Bell from Liverpool, on the steamer City of
Rome which Is due at New York, Sept s. On
her way over the best days run was made,
Tuesday, August 2, when with all sail set,
Including her spinnaker, she reeled off 247
miles, in a heavy southeast bree ze, with cross
sea which Is considered something remarka
BILE tor small craft.
foa reporter, Capt Barr said that the
Thistle was probably eight minutes faster
than the Ganesta. as that seemed TO be fair
average from races they had sailed together,
and at present there was very little if any
choice between the Irex and the Genesta
The captain WAS rather surprised at The
showing of the Mayhower this year, but when
told that she had new captain and crew
readily understood it.
The fact that the Volunteer had so far
shown herself on an average of about uine
minutes better than the Puritan, was nothing
new TO the captain, and he was evidently
pretty well posted on the merits of the new
cup defender. He thongbt that, although the
Thistle was fast before the wind, she could
do much better on wind with good bree ze.
He wanted to see a good steady breeze but
did not seem to want gale. He remarked,
however, that his boat was as good as any of
them in heavy breeze. He WAS shown the
record of the Volunteer in her race, Monday,
minutes for 43 miles. He opened his eyes
wide and said, ibid she do as we'll as that?
How much of that was windward work."

Give Them a Chance !

That is to say, your lungs. Also all your
breathing machinery. Very wonderful ma
chinery it is. Not only the larger air passages
but the thousands of little tubes and cavities
leading from them.
When these are clogged and choked with
matter which ought not to be there, your
lungs cannot half do their work. And what
they do they cannot do well
Call it cold, cough, Group, pneumonia, ca
tarrh, consumption. or any of the family Of
throat and nose and head and lung obstruc-
tions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid
Of There is just one sure way to get rid Of
them. That is to take Boschees German
Syrup, which any druggist will sell you at
75 cents a bottle. Even If everything else
has failed you, you may depend upon this for
certain. oct2d&w lychwkY

Things Worth Rem e m herring.

When you feel kind of goneness about
the stomach it is sign that your food does
not sit well and that you are about to have q
ft Of indigestion.
When you begin to feel nervous and are
unable to sit still comfortably; when your
clothes suddenly seem to lose their fit and be-
come too tight in places the fit of indigestion
is surely upon you.
When this 6t OF indigestion is repeated from
day to day it finally resolves itself into dys-
pepsia.
Chronic dyspepsia will surely make the
happiest life hell upon earth.
Remember that three to ten of Brandreth's
Pills will cure the worst case of indigestion
or dyspepsia, or both, and that a regular
course of them, say two every night for q
week or ten days will act as preventative Of
either complaint.

A letter just received at the missionary
rooms of the Congregational house, from
Rev. G F. Montgomery, under date of
Adanda, Turkey, July %, 1887, says;
1.-The famine sufferers have increased quite
beyond our ability to aid them. The muuic-
ipal council of Adanda are not willing or
able to help the poor. and are wishing to
show as small number possible. They
ordered an enrolment of only the poorest Of
those who had sold everything out of their
houses, even to the beds under them, and the
enrolment reached 5000 souls. The bitter
cry comes to us from Tarsus. koozolon,
Mississ ana many other towns and villages.
The number to be aided will reach $4,000
or 10000 As yet the government has done
nothing but to make promises"
